Community Action Agencies were created under President Lyndon B. Johnson's Great Society Programs of the 1960's.
"Your imagination, your initiative, and your indignation will determine whether we build a society where progress is the servant of our needs, or a society where old values and new visions are buried under unbridled growth. For in your time, we have the opportunity to move not only toward the rich society and the powerful society, but upward toward the Great Society ..
~ President Lyndon Baines Johnson
